Re: pacers in 2011/2012 season?

I would initially say Dunleavy. I think Murphy's legs won't last and he won't be as effective as he gets older.

OT....but in my NBA2k9 Association Game that I'm playing with the Pacers lineup, I was forced to trade Dunleavy after the 2009-2010 season ( the 2nd season with me as GM ) after he got p*ssed off at me. I played him Starter minutes for the majority of the season but had to cut his minutes here and there cuz he needed to rest....but for some reason, he demanded a trade. So I moved him for some Expiring Contracts and started clean in the 3rd season.

Those guys get pissy when you don't play them whatever their roles are. I have played that game a ton, and I always go back to the same group of guys that I target: Dwight Howard (dude seriously makes everything around the basket), Danny Granger (his shot is super smooth), James Jones off my bench, a point guard who has really high ball handling/passing attributes (usually a low cost guy), and other people who have a smooth shot. Great game.

Dunleavy was holding me down in my rotation....I had to get him minutes. I alienated Rasho so he wouldn't resign with the Pacers.

In my 3rd season as GM, I essentially tore down the entire team with Granger, Nash, BRush, Murphy, Hibbert and Gooden as my vets and the rest of the rotation filled out with Rookie and Sophomore Players and I'm 9 mil under the Cap. I maybe losing....but I get to rebuild my Team from scratch.

That's what I love about Association Mode....I can be the George Steinbrenner of the NBA and no one cares.

Also I think we are going to see most of this movement long before we get to 11/12. I think next summer will feature plenty of changes, or certainly into 10/11. By summer 2011 I think this question will already be something of a moot point.
